Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book narrates interesting and amazing legends of Lord Jagannath. The mythical, historical, metaphysical, philosophical and cultural paradigms intertwine leading to an open-ended interpretation as questions arise in the seeker's mind get the corresponding answers based on their perception and intellect, blurring the lines between illusion and reality. Here faith replaces reason heralding a miraculous transformation of the "soul.” A true makeover, revealing the essence of the self, removing imprints of past "Samskaras" as one takes a dip in the ocean of "Bhakti.” It is in this mode that one should read these legends of the Lord. It is this esoteric experience which each quest for divinity signifies. Numerous accounts have been written, numerous experiences abound, yet it is " one's experience of the divine which defines and transforms one's vision of the real and surreal....I leave the decision to the readers....to experience their own version of reality as the ultimate goal which matters is "Sharanagati" to obtain "Kaivalya" a superior form of Liberation or "moksha", here "the power of the pure consciousness settles in its own pure nature".(Kaivalya Pada:Sutra 34 of Patanjali's Yogasutras.)

Download or read book Language, Identity and Contemporary Society written by Rajesh Kumar and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the instrumentality of language in constructing identity in contemporary society. The processes of globalization, hyper-mobility, rapid urbanization, and the increasing desire of local populations to be linked to the global community have created a pressing need to reconfigure identity in this new world order. Following the digital revolution, both traditional and new media are dissolving linguistic boundaries. The centrality of language in organizing communities and groups cannot be overstated: our social order is developed alongside our linguistic allegiance, shared narratives, collective memories, and common social history. Keeping in mind the fluidity of identity, the book brings together fourteen chapters providing cultural and social perspectives. The ideas reflected here draw on a range of disciplines, such as psychology, sociology, anthropology, cultural studies, the politics of language, and linguistic identity.
